Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, is slated to release a memoir about his controversial public health career this summer.

The longtime health official and senior architect of the COVID lockdown regime in the United States will release a book entitled On Call: A Doctor’s Journey in Public Service. The memoir, which will be published by Viking, will track his early life and his time leading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022.

“I hope that this memoir will serve as a personalized document for the reader to understand better the daunting challenges that we have faced in public health over the past forty years,” Fauci said in a statement about the book. “I would also like to inspire younger individuals in particular to consider careers in public health and public service.”

Viking noted that the memoir “will reach back to his boyhood in Brooklyn, New York, his decades of dedication to caring for critically ill patients, and his many scientific accomplishments, and carry through close relationships with seven presidents.”

Fauci retired two years ago after Republican lawmakers vowed to investigate and prosecute the official for allegedly lying under oath about the creation of the COVID virus through gain-of-function research. Emails indeed revealed that Fauci sought to discourage the belief that the virus originated from experiments at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.

Beyond the obfuscation of data about the origins of COVID, Fauci drew controversy with his contradictory stances on masking, vaccines, and lockdown mandates as the disease spread.

Fauci, who started leading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases during the Reagan administration, was the highest-paid federal employee as of 2019. He is estimated to have made $504,000 in pensions during the first year of his retirement and $530,000 during the second year, an amount greater than the annual salary of President Joe Biden.
